{{Built-in|Pick|⊃}} is a [[dyadic]] [[primitive function]] which performs deep [[indexing]] on a possibly [[nested array]]. Pick allows to extract a value through multiple layers of nesting in a single function application. Pick | {{Built-in|Pick|⊃}} is a [[dyadic]] [[primitive function]] which performs deep [[indexing]] on a possibly [[nested array]]. Pick allows to extract a value through multiple layers of nesting in a single function application. Pick uses the [[Right Shoe]] glyph. | ||
